Exhibit A


Exhibit B


Exhibit C


Exhibit D

My apologies for the abomination of a knot on the last one. ...

A & B = Awesome
C = Barely passable
D & E = fuking awful

No. It creates a visual 'hiccup' when the eye scans down the body.
The horizontal line of the cutaway seems to disconnect the head from the torso.

It has this effect.

Where is the "hell No!" option?

I voted no. Even medium spreads are tricky for me. I wear my button downs almost exclusively these days.

I would like a voting option for "sort of."

I have a few, that I wear only for events at which I want to look exceptionally spiffy for whatever reason. They don't get out much, but I am glad I have them.

The appearance of a severed head is exceptionally spiffy?

I like a mild spread. Cutaway is too severe. I voted: "no way".

I voted too fast. Spread is great, cutaway is no way indeed. Wonder if there's something that can be done to put my vote into the no way category...

Should've known cutaways would be far in the lead; on a forum where balmoral boots are considered normal, even stylish.

Attempt to correlate = FAIL

I love balmoral boots; hate cutaways.
